# DigitalOcean Harness Runtime Details (public)

Generated on 21 Oct 2026

DigitalOcean Harness Runtime provides managed, hardware-isolated microVM sandboxes with built-in tools such as Chromium to run harnesses and execute arbitrary code. Rich lifecycle APIs preserve conversational history and working state across sessions, letting you pause, resume, and fork work to control costs and adapt to the nonlinear nature of agentic workflows. Scale complete agents such as Claude Code or use sandboxes independently for code execution, all through the same service. See [What You Can Build](https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/managed-agents/agent-harness-runtime/details/what-you-can-build/index.html.md) for example use cases.

[DigitalOcean Harness Runtime Features](https://docs.digitalocean.com/products/managed-agents/agent-harness-runtime/details/features/index.html.md): Harness Runtime capabilities for agent adapters, session lifecycle, permissions, secrets, GitHub, Action Gateway tools, BYOT templates, Signals, and sandbox size slugs.
